5 Benefits of Turning Your PDF Into a Hardcover Book

December 21, 2022 (Last Updated December 21, 2022)

Marcy G.

Picture this: You’re leading a discussion on a topic you’re an expert on. You’ve created the PowerPoint presentation and corresponding digital materials. You’ve typed up a detailed document, explaining the ins and outs of your chosen profession, career, or expertise.

If you currently lead workshops, speaking engagements, or you’re an entrepreneur or thought leader trying to get your business off the ground, there may be a way to market yourself and your services, in a way that’s profitable, but also personal and educational.

If you already have valuable material typed out into a downloadable PDF, why not turn it into a book? Better yet – a hardcover book. Nothing says professional quality like hardcover printing.

 

Here are just a few benefits of turning your PDF into a hardcover book:

 

The ability to transform or expand a tutorial or workbook into a new physical product

Look at turning your PDF into a hardcover book as an exciting experience. You have an opportunity to take something you’ve created and transform it into a resource that only aids in getting your message out there. People who follow you will have something physical they can refer to.

 

Some customers may prefer a physical book instead of a PDF

Despite the popularity of eBooks, most people still prefer the tactile experience of reading a physical book. Instead of isolating an audience of readers, why not serve both?

 

The ability to sell books in person during speaking engagements, workshops, and conferences

Many events come with opportunities to sell merch and other materials. You could sell your hardcover book as a way to further market yourself, your business, or expertise. You have an embedded opportunity to sell – take advantage of it!

 

The ability to charge a higher price (and make more money)

Hardcover books are priced higher than eBooks or paperback books, so you can make more of a profit in the long run.

 

You can add exclusive content to the book

Take this opportunity to expand on your chosen subject with exclusive material. This will provide a selling point and acts as a great sign off for whatever event you’re speaking at. The exclusive content will be great to tease to your listeners, so they will be even more compelled to buy it after the show. Learn more about special edition printing.

 

How do I do this, you ask? That’s where we come in.
